Chapter 110: You Should Consider Your Current Situation
Chapter 110: You Should Consider Your Current Situation
“What are you talking about?” Lillian rolled her eyes on Rachel. She smiled and said, “If I were injured,
do you think Aunt Theresa and you would be fine? It was an accident that no one had predicted... Ah,
bah, bah bah... It’s not a good sign to talk about these things. It’s all bygones. Let’s stop thinking about
it.”
While they were chatting, Kenneth was talking to Maurice in the corridor outside the door.
Maurice said respectfully, “Mr. Shawn, the news about today’s incident had been suppressed. The
police also said that it wouldn’t be spread for the time being.”
Kenneth held the handrail, looking at the downstairs. His face was cold and his voice was deep. “Go
back and inform your boss to send a few more men here. Don’t interrupt anyone in the hospital, nor
Rachel and her mother. Make it a low-key.”
“Okay.” Maurice nodded.
“Have you found out the information about those three men?”
“Yes, we have. Seemingly it was not because of something wrong with the prison that the media could
find here today. They all have received an anonymous text message, in which the hospital’s address
was included.”
Upon hearing it, Kenneth narrowed his ink-black eyes, which were sparkling with coldness. His eyes
and brows were extremely gloomy.
They just transferred to this hospital at noon, and these people came over in the afternoon. They could
find their whereabouts so accurately, which meant the manipulator didn’t simply aim to let them make
trouble. The manipulator should be quite familiar with the Lewis family.
After a long time of silence, the man’s thin lips parted. He uttered a few words, “Go look into it.”
Maurice nodded calmly. “Okay, Mr. Shawn.”
Kenneth went back to the ward, and the three women stopped chatting.
Lillian took a glance at Rachel ambiguously. Curling up her lips, she said, “It was a long day today. I
need to go home and comfort myself. Please enjoy your conversation. I’ll take off now.”
Rachel was stunned. “Lillian...”
“Please don’t walk me out.” Lillian smiled enchantingly. When she turned around, she took a glance at
Kenneth, her expression quite meaningful.
Theresa stood up and tucked Rachel in the quilt. She said gently, “I’ll go to check on your father. Take a
nap. Don’t forget to finish the soup.”
“Wait. Mom... Mom...” Rachel was in a panic. She wanted to stop Theresa.
How could they leave her alone with these men?
Theresa completely ignored her. She smiled at Kenneth. “Send her to bed earlier. Don’t stay up too
late.”
The man nodded. When she walked out, he closed the door behind her.
Rachel watched him approaching her. She didn’t know if it was because of the embarrassment or the
atmosphere just now, and she swallowed nervously. Then she stammered, “Well... I’m fine now. Please
go back to your work.”
She just wished that he could stop showing up in front of her.
If others recognized who he was, their relationship couldn’t be hidden from the public anymore.
“Since I’m helping you, I should resolve the problem completely. I don’t want another man to make use
of the loophole.” Kenneth walked to the bedside and sat down indifferently.
He was doing this not for benefiting someone else. Tomorrow her father was going to take the surgery,
and certainly, Osmond would appear. Even if he was not informed, he should have known it from the
news.
“Ehn?” Rachel creased her brows, looking at him blankly. She didn’t quite understand what he meant.
But the man didn’t give her more time to consider. He steadily added, “After your father leaves the
hospital, move to Green Bay with your mother.”
Green Bay?
Rachel was taken aback. Her expression changed and refused without any hesitation, “No way. I won’t
move in there. My mother wouldn’t go there, either.”
It was Kenneth’s apartment. Although she cheekily moved in and stayed there for a while after her
father was arrested, it was still before they had divorced. Now he knew all her difficulties, she still
wanted to save her dignity in front of him.
As if he had expected that she would refuse, the man didn’t convince her at all. Then he added, “Okay.
I’ll ask Maurice to look for a new apartment for you nearby the company. But, I’ll just help you look for it
because you don’t have time to take care of it now. You’ll need to pay for the rental yourself. You can’t
refuse this suggestion, can you?”
Rachel was choked. What he said had already blocked her words completely.
Seeing that there was still hesitation in her eyes, the man added casually, “Isn’t your mother’s life more
important than your dignity? I won’t do anything. I just help you save your time. After your father’s
surgery, you could move in. Your work wouldn’t be delayed either.”
Rachel pursed her lips. Raising her head, she gazed at him for a moment. Then she said in a flat tone,
“All right. Since Maurice will help me, I’ll thank him in person later.”
Kenneth was speechless.
He didn’t expect that the woman could read his mind.
However, he was satisfied because she had agreed.
Rachel looked down and kept silent for a moment. With a solemn look, she asked with hesitation, “Do
you know the three men’s situation in the police station?” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Her father had ruined their families. Although she was almost strangled to death, she still felt sorry for
them.
Kenneth answered indifferently, “They should be guilty of wounding with intent. Do you still want to help
them?
Rachel didn’t speak for a moment. She shook her head. “The law would give them a fair sentence for
the crime they’ve committed. I just want to know who else there is in their families. Did they get any
compensation back then?”
After all, for that man, his wife and daughter were both killed, and it was relevant to her father closely.
She just wanted to know more details.
Kenneth cast a glance at her side face, on which there was a serious look. He said in a flat tone, “They
did get a little compensation, but it was not comparable to the two lives. Only the elders were left at
home.”
“However, before considering about helping them, you should consider your current situation. Your life
is not much better than their lives now. You’d better not do anything.”
Suddenly, Rachel felt embarrassed, but she couldn’t retort.
Indeed, she lacked money now, and she also needed to pay the millions of debt. She only had two
elders at home, one of which was in the hospital. She herself was pregnant. Hence, she should
consider the reality. Besides, her father did do something evil, but he had already got the punishment
that he deserved. He also received financial punishment. She couldn’t see things as Madonna now.
“I know what I’m doing.” She picked up the soup from the table, lowering her head, stirring. She wanted
to hide her embarrassment, so she changed the topic, “Lillian told me that your mother was also here
when the incident happened. Did she come to the hospital?”
What else could Krista do? If she was not looking for Kenneth, she should be looking for her. All in all,
she came here with an evil intention for sure.
Rachel wondered why she left later.
Kenneth frowned and explained lightly, “She didn’t have anything to do, just wanted to confirm our
babies. I’ve explained to her. You don’t have to take it to your heart.”
Rachel lowered her head and took a sip of the soup. Then she looked up at him, raising her brows.
“Lillian also told me that there was a young, pretty woman standing next to her... That must be Sabrina
Torres, right?”
It was not the first time that she had seen Sabrina being together with Krista. Rachel guessed probably
Sabrina had told Krista something so Krista decided to come to her in the hospital. Otherwise, she
really couldn’t figure out why Krista would have come here.
